“After all, it's my fault that I got you involved in Dragon Valley this time, so…”

Ao Yan found it challenging to phrase her thoughts, yet she noticed that Jiang Xiaobai seemed indifferent about their predicament.

She immediately frowned and asked, “Jiang Xiaobai, what are you doing!” Jiang Xiaobai snapped out of his thoughts.

To be honest, he wasn't listening to Ao Yan's words, he was pondering over something.

Why had Ao Yan started showing concern for him all of a sudden?

“What's wrong?”

“Nothing. I'm just telling you that after the ancient clan's people leave. you should stay here and continue cooking for me! Do you understand?”

Ao Yan said irritably, “From now on, just focus on cooking, no one will threaten you, ok?”

“Oh,” Jiang Xiaobai nodded nonchalantly.

Well, it appears that Ao Yan is still the same, her mind isn't messed up.

However, his attitude really pissed off Ao Yan.

“I care about you so much, yet this is the attitude you give me?” Just like an inflated balloon, Ao Yan puffed up in anger!

She didn't want to talk to Jiang Xiaobai anymore.

The hint of guilt that had risen in her heart just a moment ago, vanished instantly.

This damned dunce!

Dunce, dunce, dunce!

Furthermore, her mood started to get more troubled. She wished to hear other responses from Jiang Xiaobai, like maybe something more excited?

Or maybe Jiang Xiaobai could react more shockingly, or even display some other emotions.

However, she didn't see any of these expressions or emotions on Jiang Xiaobai, which inexplicably made her feel uncomfortable.

But in reality, Jiang Xiaobai didn't care about these at all.

After confirming that Ao Yan was normal, he started thinking about the plan he overheard in the secret forest.

So he didn't take Ao Yan's words to heart, he didn't believe he could go through this ordeal unscathed just with Ao Yan's help.

Even if Ao Yan helped him get through this crisis, Ao Zhantian and his companions would surely find ways to kill him afterward.

Would Ao Yan still help him then?

Now, it was because he had been trying to convince Ao Yan, and Ao Yan herself might feel guilty, so Jiang Xiaobai thought it was normal for Ao Yan to say such things.

He was completely unaware that his behavior was causing certain princess to feel depressed the whole night.

Early in the morning, Jiang Xiaobai woke up to the sound of his door being pushed open.

It was Ao Yan.

“Get up quickly, Martial Sea Immortal Venerable will be here soon. If my master sees you like this, I'll get scolded!” Ao Yan urged hurriedly.

Only then did Jiang Xiaobai quickly get up and tidy everything up.

“Hehe, get busy. I'm going to find Ao Cheng.” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled and quickly walked out of the courtyard.

Behind him, Ao Yan wanted to say something to him, but seeing how Jiang Xiaobai was, she stamped her foot in irritation.

“Damn dunce, you're driving me mad!”

Ao Yan huffed coldly in her heart, stomped her foot, and sat down on the stone bench unhappily.

Not long after, Martial Sea Immortal Venerable came in. Seeing Ao Yan in this state, he chuckled.

“What's the matter, dear disciple, why are you upset so early in the morning? Is it because of the ancient clan?”

Upon seeing Martial Sea Immortal Venerable, Ao Yan quickly stood up to pour tea.

“It's not… I'm just a little irritable.” Ao Yan responded coolly.

Martial Sea Immortal Venerable chuckled, “There's nothing to be irritated about, the ancient clan won't press you in Dragon Valley anymore. As for the marriage alliance, I'll persuade the palace master to intervene after I return.”

“Thank you, Master.”

“Hmm, coming back to it, does that mortal want to leave?” Martial Sea Immortal Venerable nodded, “Inside Dragon Valley is a new world, different from the mortal world. If he insists on not wanting to leave, it doesn't matter, you shouldn't force…”

“Don't worry, Master. I'll talk to him about it. After all, with his strength, staying in Dragon Valley is useless.”

Ao Yan quickly interjected, “After all, he's just a mortal. If it weren't for me, he'd be living an ordinary life by now. It's actually nice to let him live his mortal life.

“Hehe, you may not know, but although he was originally a mortal, now that he's seen such a vast world, how could he possibly go back to his previous life?”

Martial Sea Immortal Venerable shook his head, “No matter what you think, all I want to tell you is that on the path of cultivation, there should be no stumbling blocks. People like him will only bring you down and slow you down.”

“You have great potential and talent, don't waste it because of such people and such matters.”

Ao Yan just nodded without saying a word.

She felt a bit complicated inside.

She slightly raised her head and looked back at the floor where Jiang Xiaobai usually slept, her thoughts drifting far away.

Inside Ao Cheng's mansion, three people were having a drink and eating meat.

Drinking so early in the morning seemed fine to Jiang Xiaobai, but he couldn't help it, he was feeling a little depressed.

“What's wrong? You seem unhappy early in the morning. Did my useless sister bully you?”

Ao Cheng, who had been drinking, was acting like he owned the world, he casually said something negative about Ao Yan.

Kong Yuhuai spewed out the strong liquor in his mouth upon hearing this.

“Stop talking, I don't want to die!” Kong Yuhuai shouted.

“Buzz off, what do you know? Although my sister looks powerful and is admired by others, in my eyes, she's just useless. Besides cultivating, she knows nothing else. Do you know that she hasn't left Dragon Valley for nearly thirty years?”

Ao Cheng said irritably, “She'll suffocate herself if she continues like this!” “Give it a rest, why do you care about this? You are not her.”

Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes and then raised his glass to clink with the others. After downing his strong liquor, Jiang Xiaobai gave a sound of praise, wiped his mouth, and then turned to Ao Cheng.

“Ao Cheng, have you been to the small grove on the east side of the back mountain?”

“Yes, I used to play there a lot when I was a kid. Why do you ask?” Ao Cheng looked puzzled.

“You go there often, have you ever felt anything strange?”

Jiang Xiaobai asked slowly.

Ao Cheng thought for a moment upon hearing this, then finally shook his head.

“No, it's just a rundown grove, nothing useful. Why would this young master bother messing around there?”

Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes, and didn't continue the topic.

From his words, Jiang Xiaobai could tell that the grove in the back mountain was a place that people didn't pay much attention to.

And that cave was deep inside the dense forest, which could be regarded as a place where normally nobody would go to or notice!

In this regard, he almost certainly knew that the so-called ancestral spirit in there was plotting a significant scheme.

And this scheme would fully explode when the ancient clan arrived.

The key point was that once the conspiracy started, he was as good as dead!

He had to find a way to deal with it.

After pondering the situation in his mind, he realized that the ancient clan had not given him much time at all!

At that moment, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Ao Cheng.

“Didn't you say that Miss Liu would come? When will she arrive?”
